characteristics of ion beams as applied to the analysis of
materials, as well as ion beam analysis (IBA) of art/archaeological
objects. It focuses on the fundamentals and applications of ion
beam methods of materials characterization. The book explains how
ions interact with solids and describes what information can be
gained. It starts by covering the fundamentals of ion beam
analysis, including kinematics, ion stopping, Rutherford
backscattering, channeling, elastic recoil detection, particle
induced x-ray emission, and nuclear reaction analysis. The second
part turns to applications, looking at the broad range of potential
uses in thin film reactions, ion implantation, nuclear energy,
biology, and art/archaeology. Examines classical collision theory
Details the fundamentals of five specific ion beam analysis
techniques Illustrates specific applications, including biomedicine
and thin film analysis Provides examples of ion beam analysis in
traditional and emerging research fields Supplying readers with the
means to understand the benefits and limitations of IBA, the book
offers practical information that users can immediately apply to
their own work. It covers the broad range of current and emerging
applications in materials science, physics, art, archaeology, and
biology. It also includes a chapter on computer applications of
IBA.

Here is the first book to discuss the current understanding of
silver metallization and its potential as a future interconnect
material for integrated circuit technology. With the lowest
resistivity of all metals, silver is an attractive interconnect
material for higher current densities and faster switching speeds
in integrated circuits. Over the past ten years, extensive research
has been conducted to address the issues that have prevented silver
from being used as an interconnect metal. The authors provide
details on a wide range of experimental, characterization, and
analysis techniques. The book is written for students, scientists,
engineers, and technologists in the fields of integrated circuits
and microelectronics research and development.
From materials science to integrated circuit development, much
of modern technology is moving from the microscale toward the
nanoscale. This book focuses on the fundamental physics underlying
innovative techniques for analyzing surfaces and near-surfaces. New
analytical techniques have emerged to meet these technological
requirements, all based on a few processes that govern the
interactions of particles and radiation with matter. This book
addresses the fundamentals and application of these processes, from
thin films to field effect transistors.
Ion implantation is one of the key processing steps in silicon
integrated circuit technology. Some integrated circuits require up
to 17 implantation steps and circuits are seldom processed with
less than 10 implantation steps. Controlled doping at controlled
depths is an essential feature of implantation. Ion beam processing
can also be used to improve corrosion resistance, to harden
surfaces, to reduce wear and, in general, to improve materials
properties. This book presents the physics and materials science of
ion implantation and ion beam modification of materials. It covers
ion-solid interactions used to predict ion ranges, ion straggling
and lattice disorder. Also treated are shallow-junction formation
and slicing silicon with hydrogen ion beams. Topics important for
materials modification, such as ion-beam mixing, stresses, and
sputtering, are also described.

Any student or engineer working in optics or the field of laser
technology will find this a fascinating read. The book begins by
addressing the properties of light as seen in the everyday world:
events such as refraction in a pool, lenses in the form of glasses,
the colors of objects, and atmospheric events. Latter chapters
explain these events at the atomic and subatomic level and address
the use of electron and optical microscopy in observing the worlds
unseen by the unaided eye. Exercises and activities will be found
in an appendix, but the primary volume can stand alone if the
reader so desires.
Campus planning is often a crucial underlying set of goals for
university administrations, even if, over time, the mix of new and
old buildings, changes in usage patterns and activities of
students, and evolution of styles present challenges to a cohesive
campus plan. In its two-hundred year history the University of
Michigan has planned its campus in waves, from the earliest days of
the iconic buildings around the Diag to the plans for the hospitals
and the North Campus. This immensely informative and entertaining
second volume in the history of the evolution of the campuses
offers an absorbing narrative from the perspective of Fred Mayer,
who served for more than three decades as the campus planner for
the university during an important period of its growth during the
late twentieth century. By tracing the development of the Ann Arbor
campus from its early days to the present, within the context of
the evolution of higher education in America, Mayer provides a
strong argument for the importance of rigorous and enlightened
campus planning as a critical element of the learning environment
of the university. His comprehensive history of campus planning,
illustrated with photos, maps, and diagrams from Michigan's
history, is an outstanding contribution to the university's history
as it approaches its bicentennial.
While there are times when the mix of old and new buildings and the
chaotic activities of thousands of students can give a haphazard
appearance to the university, campus planning has in fact become a
highly refined form of architecture. This is demonstrated in a
convincing fashion by this immensely informative and entertaining
history of the evolution of the campuses of the University of
Michigan by Fred Mayer, who served for more than three decades as
the campus planner for the university during an important period of
its growth during the late twentieth century. By tracing the
development of the Michigan campus from its early days to the
present, within the context of the evolution of higher education in
America, Mayer provides a strong argument for the importance of
rigorous and enlightened campus planning as a critical element of
the learning environment of the university. His comprehensive
history of campus planning, illustrated with photos, maps, and
diagrams from Michigan's history, is an outstanding contribution to
the university's history as it approaches its bicentennial in 2017.
Perhaps more important, Mayer's book provides a valuable treatise
on the evolution of campus planning as an architectural discipline.
The physics and materials science behind paintings: the pigments,
binders, canvas, and varnish that go into making a painting appear
the way it does. The text discusses the physical principles behind
the colors seen and how these change with illumination, the various
types of paint and binders used in both old and modern paintings,
and the optics and microscopic structure of paint films. Chapters
on dating, binders, and dendochronology have been contributed by
experts in the respective fields.
